THE CANONICAL DISTRIBUTION OF OPENSTACK

This article will demonstrate how to create a new project in Openstack and assign it a user. Our welcome on Canonical Distribution of Openstack, after the login as admin user, will be that:

1 STEP – CREATE A NEW PROJECT ON OPENSTACK

The first task is adding a new project that we’ll call it “u1604Pro”

now we add to this new project also admin as official member, select Manage Members

save it

2 STEP – CREATE A NEW USER ON OPENSTACK

With our new project we can add also a new user, that we’ll call it “rm@mail.com”

3 STEP – CREATE A NEW MANAGEMENT, INTERNAL & PUBLIC NETWORK

Next step is create a new network goto our network configuration and lets create three networks, one for admin internal network, the second one for our project and the last one for external network. Lets begin with the first one

management internal network

we’ll call it “admin_net”

create its subnet we will call it “admin_net_subnet”

u1604pro private network

we’ll call it “u1604_net”

create its subnet we will call it “u1604_net_subnet”

admin external network

we’ll call it “ext_net”

create its subnet we will call it “ext_net_subnet”

all networks will be so configured

we are not finished jet, it’s the time of our router.

4 STEP – CREATE ADMIN ROUTER

Use the lab user, exit from admin and login with rm@mail.com then goto Project section, select network and then router, there we’ve to add two routers

management router

we’ll call it “admin_router”

u1604pro router

we’ll call it “u1604_router”

we’ll have that

Once the Routers have been created we should be able to see it in the dashboard. Click on the router name, go to Interfaces tab and hit on Add Interface button. This task has to made only on Admin Router router.
